The documentation for seq-elt in the elisp info page looks like this:

 -- Function: seq-elt sequence index
     This function the element at the index INDEX in SEQUENCE.  INDEX
     can be an integer from zero up to the length of SEQUENCE minus one.
     For out-of-range values on built-in sequence types, ‘seq-elt’
     behaves like ‘elt’.  *Note Definition of elt::.

I guess it should be "This function returns the element..."

Kind regards,
Lars Ljung
